I really appreciate boss.
What is the Best price to buy CIvic05 tokunbo?
It should not be more than 1.3m , but dollar has gone up now, so it might be more than that

Okay, thank you.
So, it's fuel consumption is very okay compare to corolla and also low on maintenance ?
Buying a corolla of 1.8m for e-hailing looks too much for me because it will take someone approximately 18months to get the capital back.
Yes go for the Civic 03 to 05 ...very ok on fuel and cheaper to maintain and parts are cheap

As covid-19 lockdown is getting relaxed in Lagos now, am concerned about my personal safety against covid-19 going to work and return home in Lagos with danfo is something that call for concern, am seeing Uber and taxify better alternative, because i can observe social distances with this transport medium. My question is,
will Uber,taxify work tomorrow on ? I made a quick search on my taxify app just now, not successful.
Yes taxify is ready. But uber has not said anything yet

But I sense that his drivers are on NL with way he protects his business here, fearing that they might be convinced on dropping his cars after reading so many convincing reasons about dropping his vehicles.

And guess he will be in deep dilemma when his vehicles are dropped as he can't drive even if he tries to enter igboro to make some dough

At times, life throws stones at us so we can build castle from them, this period might just be a time many will rediscover those latent talents they've been afraid to exploit before.

God help everyone through this period. We will survive surely
I don't think much people will learn anything, it will be business as usual when things get back to normal. History always repeats itself...

Relax. You always take issue regarding ehailing personal.

He wasn't advising anyone not to work but to readjust the terms around the work. Only a deluded owner who can't wait for now will still expect old remittance this time.

He also advised if you can do something else now, relax on ehailing...I totally agree with him.

It’s really a tough one, we would just have to wait and see how things unfold.

Took a quick survey of about 15 people that I know regularly use e-hailing as their daily commute. 9 of them says they’ll use their personal cars for now and ride share with colleagues, seeing as they already share the same work space. Out of that 9, 6 says they would go back to e-hailing if they cant handle the stress of driving in Lagos traffic. 2 are hoping on hitching rides with neighbors, and 4 says they’ll continue using e-hailing, as it is the safest option for them.
Very good point ... Most partners will likely prefer to collect their cars back and than drive themselves to the office... it will help reduce their risk level of getting the virus, but wait what about when they get to the office? Their colleagues that enter public transport can also be another risk factor.. It seems either way person can't totally avoid getting the virus ...... This is like saying 1million ways to die ,choose one

Good assumptions but I believe reverse will be th case.

The Lagos state government has said company should run 60% staffing.

This 60% will be very cautious of how they transport to work. Most will prefer having a dedicated ride take then to n fro.

Also there will still be PEAK highs (Morning rush n Evening rush). I would wan to think if the app company would implement the POOl ride share system to increase driver earnings - So two colleagues from same office or location can POOl ride and each pays their amount independent of the other.

Concerning rental fee, most owners will hold off their cars getting to work, cuz they will weigh the benefits over maintenance or other KPI.

Now isnt the time to think Partner reducing rental fee but a time partner and driver working together to benefit each other.




Drivers can latch on to dedicated pick up and drop off at a fixed cost. You can get colleagues working in d same environment (2 per pick up or drop off) and charge a fixed rate of say 2k per Person (as you wish).




The worrisome part is the driving witout ac.. bad odour will be at its HIGHEST
I think partners should try to either sell off the vehicles or wait till the situation improves.. The cost of maintaining and cost of parts has increase now .. The dollar is about 450 to naira ...

For now partners should hold on till things improve .. The operating cost is not worth the rental delivery , the cost of parts will increase at least double the previous cost.

And this is why I was hammering that people should get cars like Honda civic due to cheap parts. Toyota car owners go hear am well well ,cost of parts are about to triple..... And if partners fail to heed my advice, than more junk cars will pile the roads, until the cars are no longer safe to either pass inspection or the cost of maintainence is eating up all the profit

Let's pray the shit doesn't hit the roof due to partial lifting of lockdown.

There might even be another lockdown if things get worse.
Something will have to hit the roof , and hunger will be one of them ... so it's either person hustle or die of hunger ... it has to be one or the other ,either way the choices are not easy

Dear e-hailing Driver. After LockDown what next?


Hi everyone, it’s good to write you again with raised optimism. I have a story to tell about the future of e-hailing (uber/ taxify and etc) business in Lagos. This is an advisory and you may choose to modify or ignore.

Please take a listen.

As the Federal Government in Nigeria is set to lift the statewide lockdown of Abuja, Ogun and Lagos on the 4th of May, it is yet to be known if e-hailing drivers (in Lagos) would get back to work.


However, as transportation is essential to movement from one point to another, we can anticipate that you would be allowed to operate.


One thing we are also certain about is the fact that the corona virus is here and we shall be living with it for a while.

Same also applies to the concept of social distancing which is being adopted.

As we await a more intricate description of the model of economic re-opening to be adopted by the Lagos State government, we can already project those businesses or livelihoods that will be toned down for a long time or completely redefined/lost as the new world order demands.

Yes, the unavoidable fact that nation’s across the globe are being compelled to remodel their lives for the foresable future while reserving a seat for the corona virus pandemic is undeniable.
And this will last until there is an acceptable vaccine worldwide.

So, back to the Crux of the matter,
As an e-hailing driver, this is not the time to be desperate or hasty.

We know the times are hard and we all need to heck a living for ourselves and families.


The e-hailing companies are going to through a lot of baits out at you, but do not forget that most of their staff would be working from home with little or no risk involved, minimal operational cost and no care or cover for you should an emergency arise. Or we await such announcements though.

My advice to all drivers goes thus:

1) BE INNOVATIVE: This is the time to be innovative. Spread your e-tantacles and think for yourself. There are many other things that can be done hands on to fetch you a living. Dig yourself into them and relax on e-hailing, it’s not likely to pay your bills for the next couple of months.

2) FORGET ABOUT RENTALS: If you rent a car to drive, I would candidly advice that you hold on for the next 3 to 4 weeks and watch the dynamics that would unravel.

Those who own vehicles can experiment and you would use their timeline and earnings to determine what is realistic to earn, pay, and save.

Night life is dead. Schools will remain closed. An estimated 50% of private businesses and employed persons will likely go temporarily or permanently jobless.
So what’s the rush.
A lot of partners would be pushing their cars on you right now, but you might be making a great mistake.

And if you must rent, cut you rental to no more than half what you paid before lockdown. I recommend 10k weekly for now.

3) HIRE PURCHASE: It is understandable that this is an intricate subject for those presently on higher purchase schemes.

But don’t be deceived by anyone, there has been a force majeure and the terms of your hire purchase payment can and should be redefined.
Get a good lawyer, get your driver associations or groups involved and make a good presentation.

I suggest you start by requesting to take the next month off, and use the analysis from that period to redetermine your realistic responsibilities to your principal.

I repeat again, don’t be deceived by anyone that the terms of your HP can’t be rescheduled under the present rearrangements we find ourselves.

4) PASSENGERS, RULES/RESTRICTIONS AND SAFE LIVING: Your personal health is your primary responsibility.

Stay SAFE!
God will protect us ALL
Try to get your facts straight next time before writing sh*t down... there is hunger everywhere, there choices to be made. It's either you go out and hustle or starve to death.. Either way a decision has to be made ... Even uber in some parts of USA is still operating......
If you prefer for drivers to sit home and not risk their lives.. I hope you can provide other means of livelihood for them to feed their family other than begging on nairaland .......

And I do have a strong feelings that they will be more drivers looking for partners.. Due to some partners selling off their vehicles... This is my own opinion for now... We just have to see how this whole thing will play out
